Power Connector
The Fast EtheRx Switch gets its power from the external power adapter. Insert
the power jack into the power connector located to the far right. For safety
purposes, ONLY use the included power supply for proper operation. The
wrong type of power supply may cause damage to both the Fast EtheRx Switch
and the power supply. Please note the KNS500/WG and KNS800/WG use
different power adapters.
NOTE: The power adapter DC output voltage varies depending on the model type.
Be sure to use the correct power adapter. Please refer to “Appendix C
Specifications” for the differences in the DC output voltage requirements of the Fast
EtheRx Switches. Polarity on the power jack and DC power connector is negative (-)
on the outside and positive (+) on the inside.
10/100TX UTP Ports
The Fast EtheRx Switch has either five (5) or eight (8) UTP ports that auto-
negotiate 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T connections and half- or full-duplex
mode operation. All ports, like all normal switch ports, are generally configured
as MDI-X. However, the last UTP port (port 5 on the KNS500/WG or port 8 on
the KNS800/WG) supports both MDI-X and MDI port configuration. Please
refer to Cascade Switch on page 6.
